As part of my 1813 project, I have expanded my Prussian artillery up to ten batteries, including:

picture

12 pounders – One battery each Calpe crew with Calpe guns, Old Glory crew with Sash and Saber guns

picture

OG Dragoonss painted as mounted Horse Artillery (OG guns)

picture

Guard 6# Foot battery (OG crew with Sash and Saber guns). What, you can't see the yellow "litzen" on the collars and cuffs? I've painted the tools the same light blue as the carriages to make the Guard units stand out a bit better on the tabletop.

Artillery Commander (Old Glory)

Hi there

Were the tyres on gun wheels painted?, I've no idea, I paint mine (of various nations) as bare iron and mud.

Any gun experts know?

Those Prussian 12Pdr really look like they are about to mess up somebody's day.

Doubtless any paint would have worn off very, very quickly on campaign, so your way is certainly more realistic regardless!
